Title: 707 installation and texture problems, any help?
Post by deadonkey on May 29th, 2007 at 3:16pm
Hi

I bought the legendary 707 and 727 last night and today tried to install them
my system is
fs2004
Nvidia 680i SLI motherboard
2.4Ghz core 2 duo CPU
2GB RAM
Nvidia 7600GT, driver version 7.15.11.5818, the most recent set
Windows Vista 32 bit, home premium

when i install the 707, it tells me that the installation has been completed succesfully but when i go to the select aircraft menu in fs, the wing textures are all missing and the wings show up black, same when the plane is loaded. this is with all models of the plane. also, in VC mode, most of the VC is blacked out too, only some of the textures are visible.
i've tried to uninstall the plane but windows says it can't find the uninstall.exe file, so i extracted the installer to my documents and moved everything into the fs9 folder manually as with a lot of freeware addons, and still have the same issues
I've looked around your site and not found anything
No Captain Sim directory has been created in the fs9 folder either, i've double checked

Any ideas?

Also, i've downloaded and attempted to install the legendary 727 addon, again the installer tells me it was succesfully installed but when i try to select the plane in fs9, it tells me that fs9 cannot load the plane
i am certain that i have installed to the correct directory


here is what is happening with the 707


here is a screenshot of what is happening with the 727 issue



i decided to put 2 issues in 1 thread to not clutter up the board, sorry if that doesn't suit.

i'd appreciate any advice, i'm really looking forward to flying these 2.

regards,
John Denby
